This is my first handmade mini stocking. I hand sew everything because I'm lazy to use my sewing machine but I'll use it next time it's faster. I used small white mesh to make a ruffle on top then added a red ribbon. I really love how it turned out except the big sequins with beads I'm not happy with it. TFL!

Another mini gift bag I made from my cricut design studio. I don't have the tags, bags, boxes & more cartridge but I still can make some by using the cricut design studio on this one I used the george basic cartridge. This is so simple and easy to make. I used the Basic Grey boxer paper, then added some stickles, ribbons and flower. I put the vellum in the circle window. This is for my friend, suppose to be a surprise but it's ok I'm not going to tell what's inside. :)Thank you for looking!
